These look AMAZING!

If you wern't guilty of begging for a trampoline as a kid, you were likely one of the parents who had their ears burned off until you got one.

The thing was probably used for about a week and now sits at the back of the garden, rusting away. Well, there is a new genius DIY way to upcycle your unwanted trampoline into a beautiful and comfortable bed swing and well, we are SO trying this for summer.

We'd be lying if we said it looked really simple (you know like the IKEA flatpacks...), so we'd highly recommend phoning the handy man or woman in your life to help with this one.

What you will need to create a bed swing from your old trampoline is:

Swimming Pool Noodles (Those things you use in the pool if you can't swim)

Spray on glue

Fabric to cover the trampoline

Strong rope that will support the desired weight

Somewhere to hang the swing (a tree, a frame, etc...)

Pillows to make it super comfy!

Here's a video which explains exactly how it's done!

Take a look at some of the amazing trampoline beds that have been created so far:
